The Effects of Sodium Nitroprusside-Induced Hypotension on Splanchnic Perfusion and Hepatocellular Integrity
UNLABELLED The purpose of our study was to investigate the effects of sodium nitroprusside-induced hypotension on splanchnic perfusion and hepatocellular integrity. Thirty patients undergoing radical prostatectomy were allocated randomly to a sodium nitroprusside (SNP) or control group (control). Regional pco2 was measured using gastric tonometry, and the regional to arterial difference in partial pressure of CO2 and intramucosal pH were calculated. The cytosolic liver enzyme alpha-glutathione S-transferase and standard liver enzyme markers (alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase, and gamma-glutamyltransferase) were also measured. Mean arterial pressure in the SNP group was 50…
Spatiality for formal topologies
We define what it means for a formal topology to be spatial, and investigate properties related to spatiality both in general and in examples.
